General Survey Information and Definitions


NORC at the University of Chicago conducted the Rainin Survey on behalf of the Kenneth Rainin Foundation in Oakland, California. The Kenneth Rainin Foundation wants to fund early care and education programs in low socio economic neighborhoods that will help children succeed. In order to do so, The Foundation needed to find out what programs these neighborhood need and what programs would actually work.

In order to collect this data, NORC conducted 400 interviews across 14 Oakland neighborhoods. The study used an address based sample and households were considered eligible if it had at least one child under the age of six and not yet in kindergarten residing in it. Interviews were 1.5 hours long and respondents received a $50 incentive for participating. The interview consisted of several sections of questions including

  • Employment

  • Household: The surveyed household, comprised of all children and adults who live at the designated address
  • Respondent: The parent or guardian of the selected child who completed the interview.
